There’s nothing sweeter than capturing a little one’s very first birthday, and Louis IV—better known as Quattro—celebrated turning UNO in the most perfect way. They transformed the backyard into a lively UNO-themed party, bursting with bright colors, family love, and so many activities that kept both kids and adults entertained all day long.
From the moment I walked in, I knew this wasn’t just a birthday party—it was also a family reunion, full of laughter, hugs, and those genuine candid moments I love to photograph. Everywhere I turned, there was something happening: cousins splashing on the waterslide and diving into the pool, kids playing laser tag in the yard, and parents catching up under the summer sun.
The UNO theme tied it all together with bold reds, yellows, greens, and blues that made every detail pop. The BBQ food truck rolled up with plates of smoky goodness, while the Kona Ice truck brought refreshing shaved ice to cool everyone off. These little touches made the day not only fun but also memorable for every guest.
Of course, the spotlight was on Quattro. Watching him take in the excitement of his big day—the balloons, the colors, the laughter around him—was the sweetest part of all. Photographing his reactions, the way his family lit up around him, and the joy of everyone celebrating his very first year made this session so special.
This UNO birthday was the perfect blend of family, fun, and love—and I’m so grateful I had the chance to capture it all for Louis IV and his family to remember for years to come.
